A Season of Hustle: When to Push Boundaries for Growth

I’ve been in the wedding photography business for almost a decade. Over the years, I’ve heard a variety of educators give conflicting information. Some really encouraged hustling to grow your business and others encouraged me to set firm boundaries that weren’t flexible to protect myself and my mental health. All of this conflicting information can be a little bit overwhelming… especially for newer photographers and business owners. Today, I wanted to share my thoughts about a season of hustle for your business.

I want to talk about why I think this can be helpful – and when to stop hustling and reset those boundaries. Sometimes to grow, we have to push harder and be more flexible. But these seasons are JUST that – a season. Most of hte time that we’re really focused on work, it’s because of a big event (like fall season!) or trying to grow. “Hustle” doesn’t have to be a bad word. Trust me!

Tune into today’s video for my thoughts!
